"Fang Lan, your house smells so good!" Lin Ruanruan looked curiously at the small succulent plants on the windowsill.
Fang Lan smiled smugly, "This is my favorite aromatherapy brand. Their aromatherapy products smell amazing and last a long time."
"If you like them, you can take a few with you tomorrow."
Yes, Fang Lan told them to bring their schoolbags and stay at his place tonight; there were plenty of rooms. After all, these young masters and ladies lived quite far from the school.
Lin Ruanruan muttered to herself, "The room is clean and tidy with no odor. He must be either a cross-dresser or gay."
Fang Lan, with her sharp ears, immediately pinched Lin Ruanruan's cheek, "Oh, Lin Ruanruan, how could you say that to me?"
Lin Ruanruan was fuming. Why did everyone like to pinch her cheeks?
Fang Lan let go of Lin Ruanruan's hand and rubbed her skin. He accidentally squeezed too hard. He leaned close to Lin Ruanruan's ear and said, "But it seems you're not wrong."
The two spoke softly, and Huo Xian and Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng, who were far away, couldn't hear what they were saying.
Huo Xian frowned as she watched the two's intimate actions. She had just heard Fang Lan say that the reason she acted immediately after Ruan Ruan was found was mainly because she didn't want Ruan Ruan and Fang Lan, a man and a woman, to be alone in a room together.
She always felt that Fang Lan was being rude and touching her inappropriately. What should she do if she was taken advantage of?
But why does she always feel that the two of them are like sisters? Is it just her imagination?
Fang Lan didn't notice Huo Xian's gaze. He led his group to the terrace, "Come on, let's have our BBQ!"
Lin Ruanruan's eyes widened instantly, not because of the barbecue and drinks Fang Lan had prepared, but because of the flowers that Fang Lan's terrace was filled with.
"My God, did you manage all of this, Fang Lan?"
Everything she plants dies; she can't keep anything alive. She has to hire someone to take care of her greenhouse.
Fang Lan laughed and said, "Of course, Angela next to you is someone I nurtured from a seedling."
"Wow, you're amazing! You can't possibly use these flowers to make perfume, can you?"
Fang Lan's eyes lit up. "How did you know? I actually had this idea, and we can even extract the pigment to make lipstick."
He stood next to Lin Ruanruan and said, "I made a lipstick just by feeling last time, and the color was amazing! You should try it later!"
Ruan Ruan nodded quickly, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling in the moonlight, like diamonds reflecting light.
She thought Fang Lan was really amazing; she couldn't believe she had such an amazing friend.
Watching the two interact, Huo Xian was puzzled; they looked more like sisters now.
At this moment, Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng poured her a glass of soy milk. Huo Xian took it and heard Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng say, "Drink some milk first, then I'll grill some meat for you."
Without any hesitation, Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng took the ingredients prepared by Fang Lan and started grilling.
Fang Lan pulled Lin Ruanruan, who wanted to take pictures, to sit down as well. "You can take as many pictures as you want at my house next time, okay? Let's eat first and look at the moon."
Lin Ruanruan didn't put down her phone; she pointed the lens at the food, feeling regretful that she hadn't brought a camera.
The largest and brightest full moon in 100 years cast its soft light upon the earth, illuminating the entire garden terrace with a soft glow, while the aroma of barbecue filled the air.
Lin Ruanruan adjusted the camera to a selfie mode and took the first group photo of the day.
Fang Lan cooperated perfectly with the hand gestures, and even Huo Xian and Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng smiled and looked at the camera. The group was closer than ever before.
Huo Xian took the meat that Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng had grilled, carefully opened her mouth and ate it. In an instant, the meat, coated with spices, burst with an irresistible flavor in her mouth. Huo Xian squinted her eyes in enjoyment, "Delicious!"
This was her first time eating barbecue. She looked at Lin Ruanruan and Fang Lan, who were toasting each other with their drinks as if they were alcohol, and Huo Xian's eyes were full of smiles.
At this moment, Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng handed Huo Xian a skewer of freshly grilled meat. Huo Xian quickly took it, saying, "Brother Hao Cheng, you should eat too."
Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng smiled, "I'm not hungry, I'll just watch you eat."
Huo Xian, her earlobes red, bit into a piece of meat, looked up at the bright moon, and said, "I hope I can be as happy as I am today in the future."
Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng gazed tenderly at Huo Xian, "Yes."
Huo Xian and Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng exchanged a smile.
Lin Ruanruan quietly pressed the button on her phone to take a picture, saving the image before Huo Xian and Xuan Yuanhaocheng could react.
Lin Ruanruan raised her glass, "It's so good to meet you all."
Fang Lan clinked glasses with Lin Ruanruan, "I think so too!"
He rarely feels so comfortable around people; Lin Ruanruan is the first.
Huo Xian also raised her glass, saying, "I'm so glad to have come out of the mountains, and so lucky to have met you all."
Xuan Yuan Hao Cheng also silently clinked glasses.
Huo Xian and Fang Lan have grown closer. She has realized that Fang Lan genuinely considers Ruan Ruan and her as friends, and has no other intentions.
They finished their barbecue with laughter and enjoyed the moon.
